Have some leftover SNES game cartridges laying around that you desperately want to find a use for? Well, here you go, craft yourself some body armor and look like the toughest nerd this side of Hyrule. This was spotted at the most recent [ otakon ] held in Baltimore, Maryland which is a celebration of all things anime, manga, and all facets of Asian pop culture. Read on and on and on to see more of this Nintendo Geek Suit in it's full glory.

You'd think he could at least wear a Powerglove. Still awesome though.
Im trying not to nerd rage over which games he chose to waste on this stupid thing. My only hope is that they are attached by some velcro which could easily be removed.
Anyone else notice the Carmen Sandiego cosplayer in the background of two of the photos?
Dude's a walking rare cart. Guy's lucky no one tried to jack him for the Final Fantasy II cartridge, the FF3 cartridge, etc. Take him, disassemble and make some profit on e-bay. LOL. Kidding of course, but yeah this is cool.
